UNO Social Media Lab Support Fund

This fund supports the Social Media Lab for Research and Engagement (SMLRE). The SMLRE is a forward thinking interdisciplinary research center, targeting all forms of emerging media. SMLRE aims to engage scholars and community members by providing: (1) events; (2) educational workshops; (3) cutting-edge interdisciplinary research; and (4) consultation services. SMLRE enhances the visibility and prestige of UNO, increases demand for its academic programs and graduates, enables faculty to compete more effectively for extramural funding, and encourages faculty and students to engage in research and community outreach.

The SMLRE is housed in the new Communication Engagement Center (CEC) at UNO and includes researchers that have both published and taught about social media, online communities, and citizen engagements through media.
